From a review in the Financial Times of a recent Brian Wilson concert in London at the Royal Festival Hall:
There were more between-song comments than three years ago, most of them charmingly off-beam. “Imagine if there was no one here,” he wondered aloud at one point. “It’d be empty. We’d be playing to an empty audience.” Occasionally a smile bobbed on to his features. At other times he looked lost in reverie, as if concentrating on a problem whose solution was in danger of eluding him.
If there is a more concise summation of Wilson's concert-in-my-mind way of seeing (being-in) the world than his quote from above, I'd like to read (not "hear," for certainly Wilson has provided the musical soundtrack to his quote) it.
